Chapter 84

After a moment of contemplation, Zhang Dong turned to look at Meng Lei and smiled slightly. "Alright! Then I'll save her!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Dong took out an acupuncture box from his pocket and placed it directly on the operating cart.

"Meng Lin, get up first. Your aunt isn't dead yet; I can save her!" Zhang Dong said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Li Meng Lin raised her head, her tear-filled eyes filled with hope.

"Zhang Dong, can you really save my mom?"

Zhang Dong nodded heavily, his face full of confidence. "At least a 90% chance! First, lift the sheet off your aunt."

"Wait! Zhang Dong, don't blame me for not warning you. Although the patient couldn't be saved, we can still use a pacemaker to let her see her family one last time. If you mess around and prevent her from seeing her family, you'll be responsible!" Meng Lei said coldly.

Zhang Dong glanced at him and snorted. "One last time? With me here, they'll have plenty of opportunities to see each other!"

With that, Zhang Dong's hands moved swiftly, taking out ten silver needles and inserting them into Li Mother's temples and surrounding acupoints at a dizzying speed.

Then, he held a silver needle between his right index and middle fingers, rotating it at high speed while inserting it into Li Mother's forehead.

One inch, two inches!

The silver needle was deeply inserted into her forehead, leaving the nurses watching in shock.

Inserting it so deep, it would be enough to kill someone, let alone cure them!

Seeing this, Meng Lei's face was full of cold laughter. "Zhang Dong, if you kill the patient, I'll call the police to arrest you!"

Even the neighbor aunt couldn't help but ask Li Meng Lin in a low voice, "Meng Lin, does your friend really know medicine? Who inserts needles so deep?"

But Li Meng Lin looked at Zhang Dong with determination and said firmly, "I trust Zhang Dong. If he's doing this, he must be confident!"

Seeing Li Meng Lin's trust in Zhang Dong, the neighbor aunt could only give up and watch Zhang Dong's acupuncture treatment with everyone else.

At this moment, Zhang Dong's hands moved faster and faster.

He was using the world-renowned acupuncture technique that could save patients on the brink of death... the Thirteen Ghost Needles!

In just a few minutes, Li Mother's head was covered with countless silver needles.

Just as the acupuncture box was about to run out of needles, Zhang Dong suddenly shouted.

In the next second, everyone almost thought they were seeing things.

In their sight, Zhang Dong seemed to have a thousand hands, pulling out the silver needles already inserted into Li Mother's acupoints and quickly inserting them into other acupoints.

Then, he pulled out another needle and moved it to another acupoint.

Due to his incredible speed, everyone was dazzled, thinking he had suddenly grown countless hands.

This scene not only stunned the others but also left Meng Lei speechless.

He would bet that even his grandfather in his prime couldn't have such astonishing hand speed.

No, to be precise, even Grandpa Meng couldn't reach half of Zhang Dong's speed!

When Zhang Dong performed the Thirteen Ghost Needles, his speed was simply astonishing!

In less than two minutes, all the silver needles on Li Mother's head were moved to other acupoints.

Finally, Zhang Dong pulled out the deeply inserted needle from her forehead.

As the needle was pulled out, Li Mother's eyelids, which had been closed all along, began to move!

Soon, she slowly opened her eyes, filled with confusion.

Seeing Li Mother wake up, the nurses were stunned.

In their worldview, a patient with such severe cerebral thrombosis could at most regain consciousness for a few minutes with a pacemaker, otherwise, it was impossible to wake up!

But Zhang Dong had shattered their worldview, saving a dying patient!

Meng Lei was also full of disbelief, unable to imagine that Zhang Dong could save Li Mother!

"Mom!" Li Meng Lin cried and rushed over.

Li Mother comforted her daughter.

At this moment, she also recalled what had happened and realized she had been sent to the hospital after fainting.

"Mom, how are you feeling now?" the neighbor aunt asked with concern.

Li Mother smiled. "I feel very comfortable now. I used to often feel dizzy, but now I don't feel dizzy at all."

"Really? That's great!" the neighbor aunt said excitedly.

At this moment, Li Mother noticed Meng Lei standing beside her, wearing a white coat and looking astonished, and thanked him with a smile.

"Doctor, thank you for saving me."

However, as soon as she said this, the neighbor aunt waved her hands.

"Mom, you're wrong! The one who saved you isn't this doctor, but your daughter's friend, this young man!"

Saying this, the neighbor aunt pointed at Zhang Dong.

Hearing this, Meng Lei was embarrassed.

But he still didn't believe that Zhang Dong could save Li Mother.

So, he grabbed Li Mother's wrist to take her pulse.

Although he was now a Western doctor, Meng Lei came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine and was proficient in both.

This was why he stood out in the county hospital.

After taking her pulse, Meng Lei's face showed disbelief again.

In his perception, the blood clot in Li Mother's head had significantly reduced!

The blood clot that couldn't be eliminated even with high-tech instruments and surgery had been mostly removed by Zhang Dong's acupuncture!

Could it be that Zhang Dong's acupuncture was that effective?

Seeing Meng Lei's shock, Zhang Dong smiled and walked over.

"Meng Lei, I told you they would see each other every day. Now you know I was right, don't you?"

At this moment, Meng Lei didn't know what to say.

Biting his lip, he suddenly rolled his eyes.

"Don't act so innocent! It must have been my resuscitation that saved the patient, just a bit later! You're just taking credit!" Meng Lei said with a cold laugh.

Seeing that Meng Lei had lost all sense of decency, Zhang Dong could only shake his head and sigh.

How could Grandpa Meng, a renowned doctor, have such a shameless grandson?

"Alright, Meng Lin, your aunt can be discharged now. However, the blood clot in her brain hasn't been completely removed. I'll give her two more acupuncture sessions, and then the cerebral thrombosis will be gone!" Zhang Dong said to Li Meng Lin.

Hearing this, Li Meng Lin nodded.

But the neighbor aunt walked over and whispered to Li Meng Lin.

"Meng Lin, didn't you hear the doctor? Your mom woke up because of the doctor's resuscitation. If you take her home now, she might relapse!"

"Aunt, I trust Zhang Dong! Besides, who do you think is more reliable: a doctor who declared her beyond saving or a friend who brought my mom back from the brink of death?" Li Meng Lin said in a deep voice.

At this moment, her face showed a maturity different from before.

This introverted girl, since the sudden change in her family, had gradually developed her own sense of judgment and the courage to make her own decisions.
